Key Cast
Plot Summary Snow swirls about the isolated home of Maarten and Vera Klein, a Dutch couple living in retirement on the Northeastern coast of their adopted country, Canada. It has begun. She noted it in small ways - a loss of direction, a forgotten phrase. He lives with his world becoming smaller and fragmented, out of sequence: his grandfather's house, the smell of oil from a shed in Holland 50 years ago ... Dementia: loss of memory. "Alzheimer's", the Doctor says quietly. Based on the best selling novel, Hersenschimmen (Out of Mind) by J. Bernlef. An intense and intimate story of what happens to the mind and the life of a person experiencing a loss of mental continuity, Mindshadows is a fascinating love story set against the rapid disintegration of Marten's world; and simultaneously, his rebellion against this disintegration. |
